The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature. Anne Frank
Isn’t it the simple things that offer the greatest pleasure and joy. Nature is a part of my life and always will be and in the foggy moments of any life nature is always there ready for you to connect. It could be a flowers scent, image of a gorgeous landscape,or glimpse of a hummingbird connecting you to simplicity of nature.
Lilacs blooming this time of year with their sweet scents and colorful variety of blooms conjures in my mind afternoon tea with my grandma, Honey. She always had a story to share and I can still hear her giggle (which was very infectious). For Mothers Day in the flower shop I would have bouquets ready all around the shop and the shop would fill with the sweet aroma. So I painted this painting in memory of those wonderful times in my life. Maybe lilacs conjure a memory for you also.

Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished. Lao Tzu
Today at Between The Weeds I would like to share with you one of the new watercolor painting I have just completed. I had hoped to share this new work with you for Mother’s Day. Then one day I looked at this quote I have scribbled on my studio table and was reminded all things happen in their own time. A leaf does not worry about not opening because it is May it opens when it is ready. Slowly I am learning to work within the space where nature exists. We forget is even there.
This is an original watercolor of a woodland garden with bees and a hint of the sky. You can buy it at Between The Weeds or at Laurie Rohner Studio.

I have been featured in this great collection of gorgeous paintings and creative handmade gifts for Easter and spring among the flowers. This collection is by Sandra Hanken and she lives a country life in northern Minnesota. Her amazing Etsy shop is Becoming Bears ETC Handmade teddy bears, toys, pillows & patterns. I love dragonflies and this is one very special dragonfly.
Green Dragonfly by Becoming Bears ETC
This is from her listing on Etsy and she writes – Dragonflies are amazing creatures of the wind, with long bodies and shimmering wings. It is sometimes said that when a dragonfly lands on you, you will have good luck. In various cultures, the dragonfly symbolizes change, renewal, and the power of life, as well as joy, new beginnings, love and hope. They make wonderful gifts to celebrate a special occasion or to add beauty to a bookshelf, side table or bed.
I made all the dragonflies that I am listing from my original pattern. This listing is for a lovely dragonfly made from cotton prints in shades of olive and lime green. The glimmering wings are made from sparkle tulle. It is approximately 13 inches long with a 16 inch wingspan and is stuffed with fiberfill. Since it has button eyes, it is appropriate for dragonfly lovers over the age of 3.
Please see my other listings for more color choices. If you would like a color that you don’t see listed, please convo me regarding a special order. Thank you!
I hope you visit all the wonderful shops featured here and my own at Between The Weeds.

I love these birds Cedar Waxwings, when they make their way through my area. They love to eat the red berries on my holly so I took a bit of artistic licensing and removed the green leaves. I love the subtle tones of this watercolor. It is whimsical with the added painted border and there are subtle water marks of blue in the corners.

“Often people attempt to live their lives backwards: they try to have more things, or more money, in order to do more of what they want so they will be happier. The way it actually works is the reverse. You must first be who you really are, then, do what you need to do, in order to have what you want.” – Margaret Young, was a popular singer and comedienne in the United States in the 1920s.
I love this thought about living life in reverse. How many people today are still chasing their tails in circles only to discover they have nothing more than what they had when they started out on their journey. For myself I have been through a bunch of ups and downs making me question my thoughts and vision for business for personal and overall perspective about my life. If we live from our heart the path before us becomes clearer, illuminated by a source many think they know but only can intuitively know.
I have opened myself up to my heart and have listened carefully to the whispers from the Divine Goddess. What I discovered was my love to paint with watercolors. I love to paint renderings of nature, of serene forests and woodland creatures and flowers. This is a path I had abandoned some years ago because I did not have the belief in my work. I followed the money trail with a number of creative careers. The whispers though were always there and never quiet. Now I am venturing down this old path. I am nervous anxious and excited about my new direction. I would be grateful if you would take a peek and see some of the small little watercolors I am working on at Between The Weeds.
The painting here is the first of a series I am starting using a new product for watercolor paintings which allows the artist to paint a watercolor and seal it on a framed board and no glass is needed. Fabulous invention.
Vermont scenic landscape watercolor painting is of the trees in a woodland fairy forest. This original is for sale by Laurie Rohner.
Once upon a time I lived in a wonderful place called Vermont, maybe you have been there? I remember the beautiful cool woods I would escape to on a warm summer day. You could smell the ferns in the air as a gentle breeze would kiss your face. This is where fairies live and earth magic is alive. Great painting to compliment your fairy houses.

I pick the prettiest part of the sky and I melt into the wing and then into the air, till I’m just soul on a sunbeam. ~Richard Bach
Today I am giving you some art with an inspiring quote. This wonderful illustration is a reminder to never stop trying to fly and when you believe enough wings appear and suddenly you can transform. Imagine riding the soulful energy and light of sunbeams.
